The good old British 'Summer' Weather never fails to dissapoint does it, another few weeks off work and pretty much rain every single day, unbelievable, a week in Scotland turned into a 2 day trip, totally abandoned due to horrendous weather, I seem to have little to no luck at all with weather lately.
I'd planned a trip to Northern Ireland in the second week and again checking the weather it was exactly the same, to say I was fed up was an understatement, I decided that I was going to go anyway and just try to work with whatever I got, this day was no different and it had been raining on and off all day, the one thing about shooting along the coast on these days though if the weather does give you a break you are pretty much garuanteed to have a great sky to use and interesting light, this was taken on a walk from Bushmills and the weather had just thankfully broken upon arrival at Bushfoot Strand beach, I haven't taken much moody poor weather landscape for a while so it was actually good to change it up a little, this is looking out towards Runskerry House on the Antrim Coast.
I managed quite a few images from Ireland in this type of weather but many locations were a wash out with some really crazy sea storms, especially on Rathlin Island, another trip here is definitely on the cards with the car it's a stunning place and nowhere near as busy as Scottish locations, no doubt it will be pouring down again when I go....
Magheroarty Beach, Ballyness Bay, County Donegal, Ireland
Over many years of viewing Magheroarty Beach from the mainland, never did I realise that...
